My full story

I've been on
both sides of the
hospital bed.

Somatic Embodiment Coach, yoga teacher, breathwork facilitator, Nurse Educator and personal experience of breast cancer. This is everything that brought me here.

"Everything I use, I use because it worked for me first. Nothing here is theoretical."

Who is Kyna?

Kyna, KynWellbeing

Somatic Embodiment Coach · Yoga Teacher · Breathwork Facilitator · NLP Master Practitioner · ICF Accredited · Nurse Educator

In 2017, at 33, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I remember sitting in the consultant's office and feeling the world disappear around me. Not because I didn't understand what was happening. I was a nurse. I understood it perfectly. But understanding something clinically and experiencing it as a human being are two completely different things.

I went through chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and seven months of tamoxifen. I was surrounded by extraordinary medical care. Skilled, dedicated people who were doing everything right. And still, I felt profoundly alone in the things that mattered most.

There were appointments for my body. There was nothing for the rest of me. That experience, and everything I discovered in the years that followed, is what KynWellbeing was built from.

I also spent 17 years as an emergency nurse, including years nursing internationally, and 12 years in clinical leadership. I know exactly what the conventional system does brilliantly, and I know precisely where it ends.

I later trained as a Nurse Educator, completing a PGCE in Health Professions, because I believed that empowerment and education were inseparable from healing. Knowing what is happening in your body, really understanding it, changes how you relate to it.

But my cancer experience showed me something my nursing career had only hinted at. The conventional system is brilliant at treating illness. It was not built to heal a person.

The full story

What brought me
to this work.

I know what it is to sit in a waiting room wondering if your body has betrayed you. To carry fear home from every appointment. To feel completely surrounded by care, and still profoundly unsupported in the things that matter most.

I also know the conventional system intimately, from the other side. Seventeen years as an emergency nurse showed me what brilliant medical care looks like, and exactly where its reach ends. There are conversations that simply don't happen in clinic rooms. There is support that falls entirely outside the system, no matter how good that system is.

"I used to believe it was positive thinking that got you through. After my own experience, I know it's something more honest, surrendering to what is, releasing what was, and daring to look forward to what is to come."

After my diagnosis, I spent years exploring everything the conventional system hadn't offered me. I trained as an ICF Accredited Embodied Coach, bringing together somatic awareness and professional coaching to work with people at a level that talk therapy alone rarely reaches.

I qualified as an NLP Master Practitioner, learning to work with the subconscious beliefs and patterns that operate beneath the surface. The ones that shape how we feel about our bodies, our futures, and ourselves.

I trained as a yoga teacher and breathwork facilitator because I experienced firsthand how profoundly these practices can shift a nervous system that has been living in survival mode. These are not additions to the work. They are the work.

The work I do now lives in the space the conventional system can't reach. I bring together somatic coaching, breathwork, healing visualisations, yoga and NLP, because I've been where you are. Not as theory. As lived experience.

Working with me, you'll never be managed. You'll be met.

Working with me, you will never be managed. You will never receive a leaflet. You will be met by someone who has sat exactly where you are sitting, who has done exactly this work, and who knows what is possible on the other side of it.

What I believe

The principles that
guide everything I do

01

The body
keeps the score

Healing doesn't only happen in the mind. What we carry emotionally lives in the body, and that's where the real work begins. Every session I run works with both.

02

You are not
your diagnosis

A diagnosis is something that happened to you. It is not who you are. My job is to help you find and inhabit the person who exists beyond it.

03

You are the
creator of your life

No matter what is happening in your body, you retain the power to choose how you relate to it, what meaning you make from it, and what you build next.
